I just love the photo's! The first one really made an impression. I really like it, a lot! I was looking at it for so long that I am now running to get to work on time! I love it! I like the one of you winking as well!KJ

Kris - I'll try to not let you down in the future (and of course you're not biased in any way, shape, or form).

Mom - It was neat how I came across him/her. It was devouring a grouse at the time when I stumbled upon it. It took off and landed on an old fence post a bit farther away. I fumbled with my zoom lens, attaching it to the camera to get a shot before it took off, not to return. I got a few, this was the best one.

Lydia - Thanks. It just seemed to work out that way.

LoS - Yes, it did. Thanks. It's not hard for me to be inspired when I am at a place I love so much.

Dani - Thanks.

Nettle - I made a comment above how I was able to get the shot. I wish I could have gotten a bit closer while he was sitting here. Ah well...maybe next time...or a more powerful zoom lens.

Antithesis indeed. Your home consists of the desert and mine is in a rainforest in the last frontier. I actually love Juneau due to the people. The environment up there is so inviting it hard to not fall in love, plus the pace of life is one in its own.

I at first thought you were going to link me to Sandpoint since most Idahoans go back to their roots.

As always, enjoyed your thoughts and your photographs. You have such a way with words and images.
